University of Kansas. Born and Raised in Kansas and I have always been a Jayhawk fan so this was the place for me.

I really want to go to New York University. Its my dream college. I'm going to work my ass off these last two years of high school. I'm going to try to keep a 3.5 GPA. I want to go there because I want to become an actor. I want to major in film and television.

Undergrad
Southern Methodist Univiersity - Got my bacholors in Computer Science and I could have had a minor in Math if I had bothered to declare it (whoops). I really wouldn't recommend SMU for a CS degree by the way.

I started in 2000 and graduated in 2005. I kind of took an extra year (my victory lap) since I didn't believe in studying, doing homework, or going to class my freshman year. My piece of advice to people going to their first year: even if it's an 8AM class go to class.

Grad School
The Guildhall at SMU - I decided to say screw computer science and went into Level Design with a specialization in scripting and loved every minute of it. I started in 2005 shortly after graduating and not being able to find a job so I was going to go to grad school for AI but then had a buddy that was applying for the Guildhall and decided to try it on a whim. I threw together a portfolio of hand drawn Dungeons and Dragons maps I had made, did their portfolio assignments, and handed it in a week or two past deadline (whoops again, though I didn't start until after the deadline) and made it in.

I started in 2005 and graduated pretty high in my class in 2007. I forgot who was top in GPA (I was close I'm sure) but definitely one of the top LD's skillwise (especially scripting) though I was one of the last to find a job (mainly because I didn't want to leave the Dallas area).

Gah, making it to class on 8AM Friday (because in NZ Thursday is the primary student drinking night) is actually not possible.

Anyway University of Canterbury. Pretty strong uni and recognised internationally in Engineering so I shouldn't have too much trouble finding a job.

I'm hoping to get into the University of Texas Business School in 2 years. Partly because it's ranked highly, but also because I would have trouble affording an out of state private university.
